As previously discussed in earlier post today my 3rd baby had a high palate. 
Now at almost 8 years old he will splutter regularly when drinking from an open 
glass but manages perfectly with a straw. His speech can have less clarity 
when he is trying to speak fast or when he shouts. He will sometimes "loose" 
food from his mouth when chewing but I didn't notice any problem when he 
began family foods. He also has ADD (without the H) and is recognised at 
school as gifted. He has unusual dentition- therapist described his mouth as 
more like a child from a Pacific Island,(he is UK/Italian descent) he had baby 
teeth early 3 months-8 of them by 6 months and started losing them at just 
over 5 years. His upper canines have not descended and are high in his jaw 
near the base of his nose- all related to high palate-probably.
Secondly the LC I consulted had a fantastic supportive attitude and knew how 
to communicate her findings and support to me and my husband and fully 
comunicated that it wasn't MY FAULT!
